Well I still don't have a complete engine for the car. What I did buy was worth the $150 that I paid for the engine though. I spent the whole day Saturday out there at the ranch taking apart the block and pistons only to find out that the crankshaft had been driven to death and the block "might" have been repairable. On a good note, I am going down south probably on Friday to check out another car that has a compete engine in it. Me and William from our group are going in halves on it because he wants the body. Hopefully between what I have now and what I get from that I will have a fully functional engine for my bug.

     Well some new stuff has happened to us and some of it isn't the greatest of news. Becky had to fly back to New York this week because her grandfather passed away. We had been hearing that he wasn't doing so well anyway. She also had some good news in that she is going to be in a wedding for a friend of hers back home. This is the same friend that was Becky's maid of honor. That means that we'll have to plan a trip up to New York sometime next year.

     For me the news is that as a Best Buy employee we recieved out Blue Crew Buck this week. This is a bonus for basicly making the company some money. The crappy thing with it is that they have to tax it to death. With this money though I am going to be putting some new tires on the old bug and pay for the new paint job. I also needed a new computer monitor so I went out and get that taken care of today.   

Well I know its been a long time now since I've written anything on this webpage. Hopefully I will be adding some stuff on here more frequently.
     One major change or addition that we have had has been the purchase of a new car. However its not that new. New to us I guess you could say. It's a 1974 VW Beetle, and boy does it need some work. It's actually coming along quite nicely. We have gone out to where its being kept and worked on it a few times and make a good improvement. I still need to replace 3 more of its tires and of course we still need and engine. Hopefully this week or next we will be getting most of the parts of an engine we need to build one. I've picked out a color that we're going to paint it. It's going to be blue. Along with the white oversized rims it's going to look really sharp.
